The very beginning of the area the games classify as "Victory Road" actually begins at the new Badge Check Gates accessed from a flight of stairs on Route 23. There is a long black-and-white hallway stretching from east to west, with eight pairs of pillars representing and in the shape of each of the {{DL|Badge|Black and White 2|current eight Badges of Unova}}. These pillars act as scanners, and will light up if the passing Trainer is shown to possess the relevant Badge. There is no variable scoring here, unlike in the original Badge Check Gates; the full orchestral scoring of Victory Road is played at the start. At the end of the gates, if all eight Badges have been successfully scanned, a huge set of stone gates supported by several pillars on either side will glow blue and orange - possibly representing the {{t|Fire|secondary}} {{t|Electric|types}} and colors of the two original mascots, respectively {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} - then one by one sink to the ground, enabling access beyond. | The very beginning of the area the games classify as "Victory Road" actually begins at the new Badge Check Gates accessed from a flight of stairs on Route 23.

Coronet]] in [[Sinnoh]]. There is a small maze to the east, where a few items (including a hidden [[Iron]]) can be found. The [[Pokémon Center]] is in a small stone building with a Poké Ball sign. To the east, a narrow path behind some trees leads to a cul-de-sac where {{TM|01|Hone Claws}} can be found. The entrance to Victory Road proper is through a wide flight of stairs going down, just west of the Pokémon Center. Above it can be seen the wall of what seems to be a castle-like building. | ||
Furthermore, the first place that the player finds themselves in upon entering are what appear to be the ruins of [[N's Castle]], which are built over an underground river with many twists and turns. Due to cracks on the floors that cannot be crossed, several {{m|Strength}} boulders block the way and need to be pushed into their respective holes. The general path goes north, west, then north again, which leads to another large staircase out. | Furthermore, the first place that the player finds themselves in upon entering are what appear to be the ruins of [[N's Castle]], which are built over an underground river with many twists and turns.
